I'm really concerned about my pinky finger. A few days ago, it got really itchy, and I noticed a bubble-like thing on it. I popped it with a needle yesterday, and now it's gotten worse. It's slightly itchy, it hurts, and my finger seems swollen today. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm trying to figure out if the new Follihair and the Follihair tablet are different or if they have the same effects. Also, is there any alternative to Konaz ZP shampoo? Could you help me with this?

I've got multiple lipomas in my hands and legs and need surgery to remove them. Did some research and feel ready, but a surgeon at a big hospital quoted 2.5k per lipoma. Wondering if there are better options out there maybe a dermatologist could do it for less? What's the usual cost for this?

Newer treatments for lipomas include High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) and injection lipolysis (dissolving injections), offering non-surgical alternatives to traditional surgical removal or liposuction. Cryotherapy is also an emerging treatment using extreme cold to destroy fat cells in the lipoma
